Chapter 46: Bow-Shaped God's Descent (Part 4)
Xie Mian looked in the direction of the laughter. Although he had prepared himself mentally, when he really saw what was outside the window, his heart still couldn't help but beat violently.
I saw countless densely packed faces on the glass outside the window.
These human faces are extremely strange.
His face was pale, his eyes narrowed into a curved, drooping slit, and the corners of his mouth were raised high in an extremely exaggerated arc.
Although it was dark outside, the face of the person pressed against the glass was extremely clear.
Xie Mian got up from the bed and slowly walked to the window. He put his fingers on the glass and carefully looked at the face of the person lying on the window.
Some of these faces look familiar, having seen them today:
For example, one of the extremely long and thin faces belongs to the pregnant woman I saw in the corridor today.
Seeing Xie Mian coming over, these people's faces became even more excited, and their laughter became even more shrill and loud.
Although their eyes were narrowed into slits and their eyeballs were almost invisible, Xie Mian could feel their gazes following his fingers.
Wherever the fingers slide, these eyes follow.
However, it seems that these faces can only be seen outside the window and cannot enter the house.
Xie Mian's hand hung at his side, and his two fingertips rubbed against each other.
He was thinking about one thing, which was whether he should catch a human face and bring it into the house to see what was going on with the bugs in their bodies.
Just as Xie Mian was about to take action, the strange smiles on these people's faces suddenly became distorted.
The corners of their mouths were turned down and the corners of their eyes were turned up, making them look like they were crying.
Then, these human faces seemed to sense some extremely terrifying existence, and disappeared from the window like a tide.
It was quiet outside the window, no more laughter. Xie Mian took two silent steps back, turned around, walked quickly to the bed, and lay down again.
“Squeak—”
The door was opened.
Something was approaching the bed step by step.
"Da, da, da—"
It was footsteps, it was a person.
Xie Mian slowed down his breathing so that the other party would not notice that he was not asleep.
He felt a dark shadow looming over him, and then something squirming touched his lips. Xie Mian clenched his fists and was about to attack when he suddenly heard the door creak open again.
As the door opened, the shadow disappeared.
"Haha!" Wife!
——It’s Goose Shifang who has returned.
Xie Mian opened his eyes and sat up from the bed.
It was dark inside the house, it was dark outside, only Goose Shifang's eyes were like a pair of glass in the darkness.
"Ga ga ga?" What happened?
Seeing that Xie Mian was not in good condition, E Shifang asked.
Xie Mian told E Shifang what had just happened.
When Goose Shifang heard that such a thrilling thing happened after he left, the feathers on his tail were almost scared off.
"Ga ga ga ga?" Are you okay?
It used its wings to lift up Xie Mian's arm and examined it carefully, fearing that Xie Mian had any wounds on his body.
After checking his arm, it cast its gaze on Xie Mian's lips and quacked, "Are you sure no bugs have crawled in?"
Xie Mian nodded slightly to show his confirmation: "I'm really fine. Time is running out. Tell me what you found."
E Shifang sat down next to Xie Mian, shook Xie Mian's hand, covered Xie Mian with the quilt, and then spoke slowly.
After leaving 404, it sneaked into the room where their father came out just now.
As they expected, the room was indeed their father's bedroom.
The bedroom is simply furnished with a bed, a table, a set of cabinets and two rows of bookshelves.
But the father was not in the room. It waited in the room for a long time but the father did not come back.
However, in his father's room, he discovered something very strange: the floor under his father's room was empty.
"Is the floorboards empty?"
Goose Shifang nodded. He suspected that there was a basement under the house, but he couldn't find the entrance after searching for a long time.
In addition to this, it also found another strange thing, that is, there were no windows in the father's room.
Generally, there are windows on the walls of rooms where people live to allow sufficient light and air to flow freely.
Isn't it strange to have a room without windows, especially a bedroom?
"It's really strange. I'll have to explore it again when I get a chance."
More importantly, they have not yet confirmed whether their father is a bug-follower.
E Shifang nodded in agreement.
At this moment, it was already very late. After discussing some issues, the man and the goose closed their eyes and fell asleep.
The next day.
Xie Mian was awakened by a knock on the door. After opening his eyes, he found that his head was resting on the wings of Goose Shifang, facing the goose Shifang's furry belly.
No wonder I kept dreaming last night. I dreamed that I fell into a bird's nest and couldn't climb out no matter how hard I tried.
Xie Mian rubbed his temples, got up from the bed, and opened the door. Standing outside was the woman who had invited them to dinner yesterday.
The woman's face seemed thinner than yesterday.
She saw Xie Mian coming out and knocked on the door of room 405. Soon, a pregnant woman with a big belly came out. Then came rooms 406, 407, 408... More and more people in white robes walked down the corridor.
Fortunately, I saw Yang Xiaoxiao also wearing a white robe.
Yang Xiaoxiao still had a smile on her face, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised and the corners of her eyes drooping, looking very happy.
After seeing Xie Mian, Yang Shu greeted him lively and energetically: "Brother Xie, good morning!"
Xie Mian nodded slightly in response.
This time, E Shifang followed them downstairs, but he did not go to the cafeteria. Instead, on the way to the cafeteria, he left the team and sneaked into his father's room.
In the cafeteria.
Just like yesterday, everyone lined up in an orderly manner to get their food. However, yesterday's three windows became two today.
The queues seemed to be getting shorter.
The brother and sister were still standing excitedly at the back of the team. This time the sister spoke less, and only the brother was talking non-stop in a rough voice.
Seeing that his sister ignored him and only stared at the window, Yang Shu had no choice but to turn around and talk to Xie Mian who was standing behind him:
"Thank you, brother. Don't knock over the plate again today, or you won't have anything to eat again."
"Hey, yesterday's chicken nuggets were so delicious. I wonder if they'll be available today."
"Ah, it's just a little small. I didn't even have a full meal yesterday. But it's enough. You said it's such a nice place, why do we need a bicycle?"
Today's meal was exactly the same as yesterday's, and there was still a white pill on the plate.
Xie Mian carried the meal tray and sat next to the brother and sister. He saw Yang Xiaoxiao excitedly put the pill into her mouth and chewed it with big mouthfuls.
Although the pills were not big, her cheeks were bulging out, making her look like she was holding an egg in one of her mouth.
Yang Shu picked up the pill and was about to put it in his mouth when Xie Mian stopped him.
"Don't eat!" Xie Mian stopped him.
"Ah? What's wrong?" Yang Shu was a little surprised to see Xie Mian not letting him take the pill. "You want to eat it? If you want, I'll give it to you!"
"This pill is a little strange, don't take it!"
"Strange? What's strange? This is the same pill that saved my sister yesterday. Feel free to take it!"
Seeing Yang Shu still carelessly putting the pill into his mouth, Xie Mian had no choice but to say:
"Give it to me, I want two."
"Hahahaha, I knew you wanted to eat it. The look in your eyes just now was just like when my sister tried to trick me into eating ice cream when I was a kid, and then told me it was poisonous. Here, take it!"
Xie Mian took out a tissue and motioned Yang Shu to put the pills on it.
"No, thank you brother, my hands are not dirty. I washed them before I went out. You don't need to wipe them again with a tissue."
